The Redemption is a standalone novel. The
Resistance is a standalone novel, but the two books share characters and
background.

He was everything she never wanted. Yet, she couldn’t
stop thinking about him.

Soulful, amber eyes

A sex, drugs, and rock n’roll reputation

A body that beckoned for sin

Three years ago Rochelle Floros was living her dream
come true… then lost it all. On the worst day of her life, the last person she
expected to be there for her was a rock star and tabloid favorite. Now, she’s
trying to rebuild her life after the tragedy that destroyed her fairytale.
Slowly, she found herself captivated by a sexy, bad boy drummer she had known
for years.

Rochelle was caught between the grief that shrouded her
heart and the charismatic man that made it race. What she didn’t know is if he
was being sincere or toying with her heart. The Redemption is about finding the
pulse of your soul in the most unlikely places and giving love a chance to
grow.

Can what she wants really be what she needs? With his
rhythm and her passion, can they make music together? Or will their harmony be
lost forever?

The Redemption is book #2 in The Resistance Series but it's
actually the first book I have read by this author. I was gifted a copy of this
book in exchange for an honest review so here goes.....

This book is FRUSTRATING!!!!! It goes round and
round in circles and I'm sorry to say that if I were Rochelle I would have cut
my losses and dumped Dex's ass and moved on!!!!

This is the main issue I have with this book I
just didn't like Dex!!!

Rochelle has a justifiable and perfectly
reasonable reason for doubting Dex and the decision to move on with her life!

But what's Dex's excuse, that he has lots
of shit going on... Well don't we all!!!

I really didn't take to him at all in fact I'd
go as far as to say I kinda disliked him!

I liked the stuff when Dex and Rochelle were
together as a couple I found them cute and sweet but then we got into the age
old get close for him to pull back and need to reassess his life.

Well seriously he can't have wanted her that
much and he was a seriously lucky bastard because anyone else would just have
moved on!!

Although this was s standalone I feel like I
would have benefited from having read the first book in the series....

I didn't hate this book I just found it a little
long winded and I'm just not sure what happened at the end to make this time
the keeper????

About us

As the title of my blog gives away I read a lot!!! I love the escapism of a good book and sometimes I even enjoy the release I get from moaning about a rubbish book.
Im not sure anyone will ever read my reviews but I'm going to do them anyway.... sometimes I read so much and so quickly that I can completely forget what ive read or the reasons I loved them so this way I can gain a little perspective.
I have a facebook page and I would love it if anyone who reads any of my reviews pops over to FB and gives me a quick like.
Also im constantly looking for recommendations so if you've read something you think I would enjoy please comment and let me know.
Happy Reading
